"Buried Alive": the excitement of a person and a coffin
The special feature of "Buried Alive" is first of all that the story setting is very clever, other similar films are often limited to the more entertaining background of perverted killing, supernatural science fiction, virus outbreaks, etc., while this film tells the story of the protagonist being buried in a coffin by Iraqi anti-American forces and extorting ransom. Perhaps the intention of the film itself does not have too much political orientation, but this story inadvertently exposes the consequences of the Iraq War and the complexity of the entanglement of national interests, and also satirizes the ugly face of interest companies, which makes the film have a certain practical significance, which can be called a small pattern and a big vision. "Buried Alive" also put the closed space and character performance in the film to the limit, from beginning to end is a single character performance in the coffin, the creativity of the script is unique, from the scene setting alone, it is estimated that it is difficult for a movie to surpass this film. So as long as there is creativity, a coffin is also wonderful.

Chainsaw Horror 1
Second, "Chainsaw Horror 1": Abusing you is for your own good
If the ending of "Buried Alive" gives people despair and depression, then the ending of "Chainsaw Horror 1" in addition to despair and depression also brings excitement to the audience, and this excitement comes from the kind of complete surprise. The opening scene of this film is the unlucky egg imprisoned in the secret room, and the audience is as confused as the people in the film, through the plot of the cocoon, the truth is revealed when everyone is surprised, and the thrilling ending is accompanied by flesh and blood blurred self-harm and heart-rending howl, causing the audience a double shock of vision and psychology. In the film, the murderous demon leader Mr. "Vertical Saw", zhenzhen has a rhetorical talk, and criticizes the grandeur of human nature for the shocking cruelty, a devil with a god mask, a kind of compassion that hides sin, and constitutes a picture of purgatory full of human teachings, and this extreme combination of elements makes this very "cult" confinement movie quickly become a classic. This is God's forbidden zone, and murder is justified in innocent abuse!

Panic party
Third, "Alien Killing Array": the labyrinth of human nature
Before "Buried Alive", the most revolutionary chamber movie was this "Alien Dimension Killing Array", and another translation of this film, "Cube", seems to more intuitively reflect the particularity of the chamber in this movie - it is a labyrinth composed of countless cubes containing mathematical theories, and the escape process of six people including captivity is to solve one mathematical puzzle after another. Six people at different social levels in the film are given some kind of social metaphor, the transmutation of human nature in the process of escape makes the film intriguing, and at the end, the person who is most unlikely to escape gets the only chance to escape, accompanied by a strong irony of science fiction, so a person who looks like a fool is sometimes not necessarily a good thing.
Excitement level: ★★★★
Demons in the elevator
Fourth, "The Devil in the Elevator": There are gods three feet above the head
Knight. Shyamalan is best known for "The Sixth Sense of The Spirit", and his new film "The Devil in the Elevator" is still based on supernatural horror. Five people of different origins meet in the elevator inside the building, and the elevator that suddenly stops running triggers a series of bloody horrors. From a technical point of view, most of the plot of the film takes place in the elevator, which fully reflects the creator's ideological vitality, and the smooth shots make the film quite enjoyable. The movie borrows the punishment of the devil to tell the world that there are gods three feet above the head, if you want people to know that unless they do nothing, although the final supernatural ending is somewhat clichéd, but the story's exhortation function is still worth advocating. After watching this film, I believe that many people will be suspicious of the people around them when taking the elevator - will he be a non-human object?

Darkness invades
V. "Invasion of Darkness": The human heart is more terrifying than the monster
There are many movies that show the story of claustrophobic caves, only in 2005, there was a movie with a very similar plot, "The Devil's Cave", but "Dark Invasion" stood out and was regarded as a classic by many fans, and the reason is that the discussion of human nature in "Dark Invasion" far exceeded that of "The Devil's Grotto". Six sisters of the same sisters to explore the unknown cave, it is expected that there are hidden monsters, in the process of escape, the weakness of human nature makes them resist the attack of the monsters at the same time but also to kill each other, the monsters are invincible, but the human heart is like the sea is more terrifying. The ending of the film is similar to "Buried Alive", the same despair after hope, and the same eternal darkness after the fleeting light. The oppressive claustrophobic environment, the horror atmosphere and the violent female characters complement each other, which greatly enhances the horror color of this film, who says that women are inferior to men?

Shudder space
6. "Shudder Space": The offensive and defensive transformation between strong and weak forces
This film is directed by the famous director David. Finch, but under the aura of his "Seven Deadly Sins", "Fight Club" and this year's Oscar hit "Social Network", the thriller is often overlooked by fans. A closed house, a pair of vulnerable mother and daughter and three burglars, a thrilling contest around money and humanity, the story structure is not new, but David. Finch's excellent camera control ability makes the scene transition in the enclosed space smooth and natural, which is very visually vibrant, while the several degrees of transformation of the balance of forces between the two sides also make the plot ups and downs in one go, which is very ornamental. The amazing thing about maternal love is that she is forced to be anxious, and people block killing Buddhas to kill Buddhas!

Lebanon
Lebanon: War in the Telescope
This film is a different kind of war film, the whole story is set in a tank, and 90% of the shots have never left this scene, and the only way for the people in the tank to contact the outside world is the lookout mirror. The film is set against the backdrop of the Lebanese war, and the small lookout mirror becomes a window to observe the war from another perspective, and the unique perspective makes this war film refreshing. If "Buried Alive" creates the limit of enclosed space in thrillers, then "Lebanon" must have opened up a new record for closed scenes in war films, leaving those famous submarine films such as "Attack from the Bottom of the Sea" and "Hunting Red October" far behind, this particularity is probably also an important reason why this film won the Golden Lion Award at the 2009 Venice Film Festival.
Fatal ID
Fatal ID: It's a wonderful joke
On a rainy night, eleven people on the road met unexpectedly in a hotel, which led to a strange but wonderful story, although compared with films such as "Buried Alive" and "Chainsaw Horror", the claustrophobic space of this film is much wider, but its excellent plot setting and strict logical reasoning are impossible to abandon. A good movie ending must be unexpected but also reasonable, and "Fatal ID" is such a classic, when everyone confirms that this is a crazy killing, the answer to the film is split personality, which seems to be a malicious joke of the director, but this joke makes people feel chilled due to the final plausible blank, and "Deadly ID" also shows that the personality splits to a certain extent and becomes a god.
Twelve Angry Men
IX. "Twelve Angry Men": A classic that is difficult to hide over the years
Although the film is old, but half a century of thick years can not hide its light, and "Buried Alive", all the scenes of this film are concentrated in a room, the amazing thing is that such a single scene story, but because of the layers of step-by-step suspense settings and fascinating, no fancy special effects, no location, no scare action, the only force to promote the plot is the dialogue and the transformation of the character's position. If "Buried Alive" is the creator of the smallest record in the enclosed space, then the brilliance and structural rigor of the story of "Twelve Angry Men" are still difficult to match. "The Twelve Angry Men" tells us that as long as we stand firm, it is not a legend to turn the tide.
Phantom Murder Room
10. "1408 Phantom Murder": the horror of a person tossing out
The film is also a claustrophobic space in which writer Mike, in search of inspiration, despite the advice of others, stays in a supposedly haunted hotel room, so an atheist is scared into becoming a theist. In addition to the scene is larger, the layout of this film is similar to "Buried Alive", but compared with the latter's realistic story background, it is obvious that the performance of this film is more difficult, completely relying on the actors themselves to "toss" a convincing sense of suspense and horror, and because of this, this film has also become a must-see in the hearts of many fans, so sometimes good movies are "tossed" by actors.
There are many movies with enclosed space as the scene, but due to the limitation of space, many movies tend to be homogeneous, and classic movies such as "Buried Alive", "Lebanon", "Chainsaw Horror", "Twelve Angry Men" and so on, if you can use the enclosed space properly, you can often create a magnificent plot.
